FT. Montpellier come out on top after a scrappy affair. It was nip and tuck until about 60 minutes when the home side managed to turn the wheel. The scrum of Montpellier was excellent and was rewarded with a penalty try in the closing minutes. Oyo will feel disappointed they fell away with 20 minutes to play. Once again they have not been able to put together a full performance, that said there are still some very promising signs. Thanks for following UR, till next time.
